Bible prophecy checked against the historical record

Gospels

  • Bible Trivia: Bible Geography

    Twelve questions on the map behind the text — which town is where, which mountain hosted which scene, and what several familiar places were called before they were famous.

  • Bible Trivia: Women of the Bible

    Twelve questions on named women across both testaments — what each one did and where the text places her — at three levels, each answer worked through with the passage behind it.

  • Bible Trivia: The Parables of Jesus

    Twelve questions on the parables — what happens in each one, which Gospel carries it, and which of the famous stories turn out to appear in only a single book.

  • John

    So different from the other three in chronology, idiom and content that harmonising is not an option. Two endings, and a famous passage the earliest manuscripts do not have.

  • Luke

    A formal preface, a two-volume work with Acts, and a census in chapter 2 that remains a real and unresolved historical difficulty.

  • Mark

    The shortest Gospel, earliest on the majority view, and the book with the most important textual fact in the New Testament attached to its final page.

  • Bible Trivia: The Gospels

    Twelve questions on the four Gospels — what each one contains, where they part company, and which of them is the sole source for the scenes everyone assumes are in all four.

  • Matthew

    Jewish framing, five discourses, fulfilment formulas — and a dating argument that turns on a single verse about a burnt city.
